About My Clients

Clinically, I specialize in supporting individuals facing anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive challenges, and concerns related to sexuality and paraphilia.My academic work spans topics including nineteenth-century popular women writers, feminism, masculinity, digital media, sexual identities, and the intersections of childhood and sexuality.

My Background and Approach

If you are struggling with taboo or intrusive OCD themes, such as Pedophilia OCD (POCD), my background allows me to approach these concerns with informed understanding, empathy, and without judgment, helping you find relief and clarity. I use a range of therapeutic modalities, including Inference-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (I-CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention therapy (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and both play and talk therapy. I work especially well with middle school-aged children (ages 11–14) and adults, always tailoring treatment to meet each individual’s needs.
